Pregnancy: 16 mg: There is a very limited amount of data from the use of Betahistine in pregnant women. Animal studies, though insufficient do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to reproductive toxicity. The potential risk for humans is unknown. As a precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of Betahistine during pregnancy.
24 mg: Betahistine dihydrochloride should not be used during pregnancy since there is insufficient data on the use of this drug during pregnancy to evaluate possible harmful effects. Studies in animals are inadequate or may be lacking, but available data show no evidence of an increased occurrence of fetal damage.
